Overview

Product Description Mouse Monoclonal antibody [2B4] recognizes Sulfatase 2.
This product recognizes an epitope within the C-terminal (CT) subunit of Sulfatase 2 (Sulf-2). Sulf-2 is a novel extracellular heparan sulfate 6-O-endosulfatase, which selectively removes the critical sulfate group from the polysaccharide side chain of heparan sulfate proteoglycans, major components of the extracellular matrix, involved in cell differentiation, proliferation and migration. Sulf-2 acts as a modulator of several signalling proteins including Wnt proteins, bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) and fibroblast growth factors (FGFs), and is a direct transcriptional target of p53. Studies have linked Sulf-2 with several cancers, including breast, hepatocellular, and pancreatic cancer, and recently with non-small-cell lung carcinomas (Lemjabbar-Alaoui et al. 2010). Mature human Sulf-2 is a heterodimer consisting of a 50kDa C-terminal subunit, essential for both glucosamine 6-O-sulfate-endosulfatase and arylsulfatase activity, and a 75kDa N-terminal subunit which contains the catalytic centre. Mouse anti Human Sulfatase 2 (C-Terminal) antibody, clone 2B4recognizes Sulfatase 2, showing no cross-reactivity with Sulfatase 1 in either human or mouse.

Gene Symbol SULF2
Gene Full Name sulfatase 2
Background Heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) act as coreceptors for numerous heparin-binding growth factors and cytokines and are involved in cell signaling. Heparan sulfate 6-O-endosulfatases, such as SULF2, selectively remove 6-O-sulfate groups from heparan sulfate. This activity modulates the effects of heparan sulfate by altering binding sites for signaling molecules (Dai et al., 2005 [PubMed 16192265]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]
Function Exhibits arylsulfatase activity and highly specific endoglucosamine-6-sulfatase activity. It can remove sulfate from the C-6 position of glucosamine within specific subregions of intact heparin. [UniProt]
Calculated MW 100 kDa
PTM The conversion to 3-oxoalanine (also known as C-formylglycine, FGly), of a serine or cysteine residue in prokaryotes and of a cysteine residue in eukaryotes, is critical for catalytic activity. [UniProt]
